Riverview Sun City

Course was in good shape. Greens were tricky as usual. Pace of play was slow as the fivesome in front of the group in front of us thought they were playing the US Open.

Sun City Riverview

We had a good day at Riverview. Conditions were good with a few bare spots in the fairways but greens and tee boxes were good. The only negative I can report was there was a fivesome two groups in front of us and a threesome between them and us. The threesome bacame a twosome after nine holes and the fivesome never let them play through. One of our group dropped out and we joined the twosome but there were several holes open in front of the fivesome and they continued holding everyone up with their slow play. No rangers around to speed up play.

Enjoyable!

Pace of play was a bit slow due to a party of 5 that went out together in front of three singles. Nevertheless, we singles agreed to join up together and wait time wasn't too bad between holes. This time of year, the courses aren't too crowded and the staff allows people to govern their own choices. Lynne, at the counter, is always kind, upbeat and a joy to work with. This is quickly becoming a favorite. There are plenty of carts available too, making for an enjoyable summer outing.

Wow! The greens!

It's been a while since I've played this course. Of all the Sun City courses this one must have the toughest greens. Every green is undulating, resulting in huge breaks on every putt. It seemed like there wasn't much grass on the greens making them even tougher. Lots of bare spots in the fairways. Still would recommend to anyone.
